The typical electric car charger for your home in Corsicana is a Level 2 charger. A Level 2 charger requires either a 240-volt outlet or a 240-volt line that runs directly into your electrical panel. We generally recommend the hard-wired approach, as it provides more consistent charging and is less prone to surges.
There are also Level 1 and Level 3 charging options. Level 3, or DC fast charging, is only available at public charging stations. It requires an industrial electrical connection and isn’t suitable for home use. You can install a Level 1 home EV charging station, but we usually don’t recommend it. Level 1 chargers take much longer to charge vehicles. Even if you have an older hybrid that supports Level 1 only, the Level 2 charger will be more economical in the long run since Level 2 chargers charge vehicles that only support Level 1 just fine.
Another question we get often concerns the connection types for an electric car charger for the home. There are two main types: the J plug and Tesla plug. While they’re not compatible, there are adapters. With an adapter, you can use a home EV charging station to charge any EV. It’s even possible with a dual charger to have both a J plug and Tesla plug. We’ll generally recommend a J plug because it’s much more prevalent. That said, Tesla plugs are becoming more common, and they aren’t exclusive to Tesla. General Motors, for instance, will use the Tesla plug for all its vehicles in 2025 and beyond.
There are many other EV charging station features to consider.
